Nicholas Meyer blurb on Star Trek

You be the judge regarding this snippet. Personally, I feel Meyer had every right to tell the Great Bird of the Galaxy to butt out on with Star Trek VI. Roddenberry may have created the franchise yet he wasn’t really competent to be at the helm as the first film (aka The Motionless Picture) and first season of Next Generation (holy crap, it was incredibly awkward, especially the Ferengi) proved.

I can understand his regrets since no one told Meyer how ill Roddenberry was but he did direct Wrath of Khan, the best in a collection plagued with more craptacularness than James Bond: Final Frontier, Generations, Insurrection, Nemesis and the recent “reboot.” Meyer easily deserves a pass.
